About this listen
Handsome, successful husband. Adorable daughter. Chairwoman of the PTA. Security for her ailing mom. Jane’s got everything life has to offer. Including the lie that could destroy it all.
See Jane smile. Thirty-nine-year-old Jane Osborne appears to the world like she has a charmed life. Her daughter attends private school. Jane chairs the PTA. Even her marriage to Dan, the handsome, prominent surgeon, is blissfully happy. Her universe is stable, and her future is fixed...just like that smile. Because it’s all a ruse. Unbeknownst to anyone, after eighteen years of marriage, Dan’s revealed that he’s been living a double life and is in love with a man. But for the sake of his career, Jane must keep that secret, secret.
See Jane lie. With their livelihood on the line, Jane agrees to maintain appearances. But soon the weight of Dan’s deception and the pain of his betrayal get the better of her. Something’s got to give.
See Jane snap. Quite publicly. And a bit unlawfully. With brutal honesty, Jane must confront her choices head-on and determine - for herself - if the facade of stability she’s been protecting is worth the price of her own sanity and happiness.

Critic reviews
“Crandell’s (The Jake Ryan Complex) second adult novel is a fast-paced, thought-provoking, often humorous look at the choices we make and their effects on us and the people we care about. For fans of women’s fiction focusing on self-worth and family.”—Library Journal
“See Jane Snap [is] author Bethany Crandell’s funny, occasionally heartbreaking, always relatable new novel.”—San Diego Union-Tribune
“Crandell has created a believable, timely novel that readers will enjoy from the very first page…See Jane Snap is engaging and witty and readers will undoubtedly empathize with Jane’s stressful life. Fans of Lisa Daily and Emily Adrian will enjoy Crandell’s newest novel.”—Booklist
💚 Overall this is a playful tale with likable - and some not so likable - characters. I wouldn’t say I related to anyone but I did enjoy most of the time in their company.
💜 The single lost star is for the story dragging a bit at the end.

SOUNDBITE
🎧 Xe Sands has an uncanny knack for bringing the listener into her confidence. It’s an indulgence, like gossiping with your mate over too many cocktails. This perfectly reflects Jane and the feel of the story. Loved it.

TO READ OR NOT TO READ...
Need something to make you smile, laugh and occasionally cringe? You need to see Jane snap. I cannot entirely explain why, but this reminded me of Liane Moriartey’s What Alice Forgot. It was probably the tone and the general feel of piecing a life back together.
